Bart has been a successful Chief Financial Officer for the Wizzo Corporation for 15 years. During his tenure, share value for Wizzo has risen from $12 to $95. He and the other Wizzo managers have been doing this the right way - focusing on growing Wizzo's customer base and pursuing reasonable cost reductions. Bart has been rewarded with stock options that now add up to a significant portion of his personal wealth. The latest forecast figures have been just presented to him and it is evident that Wizzo's stock value is going to tumble as soon as this news is made public. Would it be ethically acceptable (amoral) for Bart to sell off his Wizzo stock before the bad news comes out, or would doing see be unfair or harmful to the other shareholders Bart is supposed to be representing? Answer with the Four-part answer model. 1. State your answer to the question in a single short sentence. -Do not use terms like "I believe" or "in my opinion." 2.Give your reason(s)in defence of your answer. -A complete reason is a statement or set of statements that together makes your conclusion follow. 3.State an opposing answer and the reason one would appeal to support that answer. 4. Explain what is wrong with the opposing answer (Think of Mary's response to Bill's argument.

The Buffett Rule | Under The Hood October 2014
This Week's White Paper Wednesday Project is from Michael Weiner, CFA, Chief Investment Officer @ Unified Trust Company.
According to multiple surveys, somehow accumulating
enough assets to retire comfortably, given all other
demands on our savings, remains a top five concern of
Americans. This is a major reason why Cash Balance
plans are on the rise throughout the U.S. and why it
may be something to consider for your business both
from a tax efficiency (Buffet style) and a retirement
savings perspective.

AgeWage response to the DWP call for evidence on options for DB schemes
Before starting on this assignment, make sure to carefully review .docx
Before starting on this assignment, make sure to carefully review the background readings. Part A requires you to make some computations, and Part B requires you to analyze some scenarios using your knowledge of the concepts. So make sure to go through the computational examples in the required readings and also thoroughly review the key concepts before starting on this assignment.
Case Assignment
Part A: Quantitative Problems
1. Suppose QuickCharge Corporation manufactures phone chargers. They sell their chargers for $20. Their fixed operating costs are $100,000 and their variable operating costs are $10 per charger. Currently they are selling 30,000 chargers per year.
A. What is QuickCharge’s EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) at current sales of 30,000?
B. What is QuickCharge’s breakeven point?
C. Calculate the EBIT if QuickCharge’s sales increase 50% to 45,000 chargers. What is the percent of change in EBIT under this increase in sales? Also, calculate the EBIT if the company's sales decrease 50% to 15,000 chargers. What is the percent of change in EBIT under this decrease in sales?
D. What is QuickCharge’s degree of operating leverage? Based on your computation, what does its operating leverage say about QuickCharge’s business risk?
2. The StayDry Umbrella Corporation will have an EBIT of $100,000 if there is a normal amount of rain this year. But if there is a drought, they will have an EBIT of only $50,000. The interest rate on debt is 10%, and the tax rate is 35%. The company does not pay any preferred dividends.
A. If StayDry has zero debt and 50,000 outstanding shares, what will its EPS (earnings per share) be if there is normal rain? What will its EPS be if there is a drought? What is its DFL (degree of financial leverage)?
B. Now suppose StayDry has decided to take on $300,000 in debt and has used these funds to buy back half of the outstanding shares so now there are only 25,000 outstanding shares. What is the new EPS and DFL for both normal rain and drought?
C. Based on your answers to a) and b) above, what are the trade-offs management has to make between zero debt or $300,000 in debt? What are the benefits and disadvantages of taking on this debt?
Part B: Conceptual Questions
1. For each of the following scenarios, explain whether the situation describes financial risk or business risk. Explain your answers to each scenario using at least one of the references from the background readings:
A. A pharmaceutical company has developed a new cancer treatment drug that has a much higher success rate than other drugs currently in the market. It has the potential to triple the company’s profits. However, the FDA has expressed concern about some side effects, and it is not clear if the FDA will approve the drug.
B. An airline has an EBIT of $100 million per year. However, it also has a huge amount of debt and pays $97 million per year in interest. Its EBIT is relatively stable but tends to go up or down by $5 million or so each ...

The Case This case was developed by the MIT Sloan School o.docx
The Case
This case was developed by the MIT Sloan School of Management. It is part of their
“Learning Edge,” a free learning resource. This case was prepared by John Minahan
and Cate Reavis. This case is based on actual events. Actual names are changed; some
of the narrative is fictional.
In early 2012, as he prepared to enter a meeting with the board of trustees of a
state pension fund, Harry Markham, CFA, couldn't help but feel professionally
conflicted.
Since earning his Master of Finance in 2004 at one of the top business schools in
the United States, Markham had worked for Investment Consulting Associates
(ICA), a firm that gave investment advice to pension funds.
Since joining the firm, Markham had grown increasingly concerned over how
public sector pension fund liabilities were being valued. If he valued the liabilities
using the valuation and financial analysis principles he learned in his Master of
Finance and CFA programs, he would get numbers almost twice as high as those
reported by the funds.
This would not be such a problem if he were allowed to make adjustments to the
official numbers, but neither his clients nor his firm was interested in questioning
them. The board did not want to hear that the fund's liabilities were much larger
than the number being captured by the Government Accounting Standards Board
(GASB) rules and his firm wanted to keep the board of trustees happy.
How, Markham wondered, was he supposed to give sound investment advice to
state treasurers and boards of trustees working from financials that he knew were
grossly misleading?
Markham's dilemma came down to conflicting loyalties: loyalty to his firm,
loyalty to the boards of trustees and others who made investment decisions for
public pensions and who, in turn, hired his firm to provide investment expertise,
and loyalty to the pensioners themselves, as Markham believed was called for by
the CFA Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct.
In his role as investment advisor, the differing views on how to value pension
liabilities challenged Markham on both a practical and an ethical level. "My role
is not to decide the value of liabilities," he explained.
That is the actuary's job. My role is to give investment advice. However, as an
investment advisor, the first thing you want to understand is the client's
circumstances. That is a basic ethical precept. The CFA professional standards
say you should never give advice without knowing what your client's
circumstances are. And so what happens is that we have these funds that are
grossly short of money, but the accounting does not show them as being grossly
short of money. I make the case within my firm that we need to know where we
are starting before we give advice. And perhaps our advice would be different if
the client knew they were starting from a multi-billion-dollar hole that they're
seemingly not aware of.

2. According to Austrian school, what should be our guiding policy for economic crisis mentioned
in the article?
3. What kind of economic policy is our government pursuing to deal with this crisis? What would
the author of this article recommend?
PLEASE WRITE A MINIMUM OF SIX LINES FOR EACH ANSWER.
The article:
In March 2007 then-Treasury secretary Henry Paulson told Americans that the global economy
was as strong as Ive seen it in my business career. Our financial institutions are strong, he added
in March 2008. Our investment banks are strong. Our banks are strong. Theyre going to be strong
for many, many years. Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke said in May 2007, We do not
expect significant spillovers from the subprime market to the rest of the economy or to the financial
system. In August 2008, Paulson and Bernanke assured the country that other than perhaps $25
billion in bailout money for Fannie and Freddie, the fundamentals of the economy were sound.
Then, all of a sudden, things were so bad that without a $700 billion congressional appropriation,
the whole thing would collapse. In the wake of this change of heart on the part of our leaders,
Americans found themselves bombarded with a predictable and relentless refrain: the free market
economy has failed. The alleged remedies were equally predictable: more regulation, more
government intervention, more spending, more money creation, and more debt. To add insult to
injury, the very people who had been responsible for the policies that created the mess were
posing as the wise public servants who would show us the way out. And following a now-familiar
pattern, government failure would not only be blamed on anyone and everyone but the
government itself, but it would also be used to justify additional grants of government power. The
truth of the matter is that intervention in the market, rather than the market economy itself, was the
driving factor behind the bust. F.A. Hayek won the Nobel Prize for his work showing how the
central banks intervention into the economy gives rise to the boom-bust cycle, making us feel
prosperous until we suffer the inevitable crash. Most Americans know nothing about Hayeks
theory (known as the Austrian theory of the business cycle), and are therefore easy prey for the
quacks who blame the market for problems caused by the manipulation of money and credit. The
artificial booms the Fed provokes, wrote economist Henry Hazlitt decades ago, must end in a
crisis and a slump, andworse than the slump itself may be the public delusion that the slump has
been caused, not by the previous inflation, but by the inherent defects of capitalism. Although my
recently released book, Meltdown explains the process in more detail, an abbreviated version of
Austrian business cycle theory might run as follows: Government-established central banks can
artificially lower interest rates by increasing the supply of money (and thus the funds banks have

Barilla, un fabricante de pasta italiano, lanz un programa de inventario administrado por el
proveedor (VMI) con sus clientes, que son propietarios de almacenes independientes. Barilla
encontr la siguiente dificultad durante la implementacin del programa:
Armando Porcini, propietario de un pequeo almacn en el sur de Italia, era miembro de un
consorcio de compras de propietarios de almacenes independientes. Algunos propietarios de
almacenes independientes en el consorcio haban operado bajo el programa VMI de Barilla
durante casi dos aos cuando Barilla finalmente convenci a Porcini, un cliente de Barilla desde
hace mucho tiempo, para que se inscribiera en el programa VMI. Porcini siempre haba negociado
firmemente los descuentos con Barilla, a menudo cerrando la puerta o colgando al representante
de ventas de Barilla, gritando No hay descuento? Sin camin!
Cuando Porcini finalmente accedi a probar el programa, Rinaldi, otro distribuidor de Barilla
ubicado en el pueblo de Porcini, continu con las prcticas tradicionales de compra. Al percibir la
vulnerabilidad de Porcini bajo el programa VMI, Rinaldi compr cuatro meses de pasta Barilla con
un descuento promocional del 5% y luego inund el mercado con el producto Barilla de precio ms
bajo. Porcini estaba furioso: Todos en mi ciudad conocen el precio de la pasta. Es el producto ms
importante que la gente compra! Mi reputacin est arruinada! Inmediatamente abandon el
programa y volvi a sus antiguas prcticas de compra con una determinacin an mayor de impulsar
los descuentos.

Before starting on this assignment, make sure to carefully review the background readings. Part A requires you to make some computations, and Part B requires you to analyze some scenarios using your knowledge of the concepts. So make sure to go through the computational examples in the required readings and also thoroughly review the key concepts before starting on this assignment.
Case Assignment
Part A: Quantitative Problems
1. Suppose QuickCharge Corporation manufactures phone chargers. They sell their chargers for $20. Their fixed operating costs are $100,000 and their variable operating costs are $10 per charger. Currently they are selling 30,000 chargers per year.
A. What is QuickCharge’s EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) at current sales of 30,000?
B. What is QuickCharge’s breakeven point?
C. Calculate the EBIT if QuickCharge’s sales increase 50% to 45,000 chargers. What is the percent of change in EBIT under this increase in sales? Also, calculate the EBIT if the company's sales decrease 50% to 15,000 chargers. What is the percent of change in EBIT under this decrease in sales?
D. What is QuickCharge’s degree of operating leverage? Based on your computation, what does its operating leverage say about QuickCharge’s business risk?
2. The StayDry Umbrella Corporation will have an EBIT of $100,000 if there is a normal amount of rain this year. But if there is a drought, they will have an EBIT of only $50,000. The interest rate on debt is 10%, and the tax rate is 35%. The company does not pay any preferred dividends.
A. If StayDry has zero debt and 50,000 outstanding shares, what will its EPS (earnings per share) be if there is normal rain? What will its EPS be if there is a drought? What is its DFL (degree of financial leverage)?
B. Now suppose StayDry has decided to take on $300,000 in debt and has used these funds to buy back half of the outstanding shares so now there are only 25,000 outstanding shares. What is the new EPS and DFL for both normal rain and drought?
C. Based on your answers to a) and b) above, what are the trade-offs management has to make between zero debt or $300,000 in debt? What are the benefits and disadvantages of taking on this debt?

“Learning Edge,” a free learning resource. This case was prepared by John Minahan
and Cate Reavis. This case is based on actual events. Actual names are changed; some
of the narrative is fictional.
In early 2012, as he prepared to enter a meeting with the board of trustees of a
state pension fund, Harry Markham, CFA, couldn't help but feel professionally
conflicted.
Since earning his Master of Finance in 2004 at one of the top business schools in

The article:
In March 2007 then-Treasury secretary Henry Paulson told Americans that the global economy
was as strong as Ive seen it in my business career. Our financial institutions are strong, he added
in March 2008. Our investment banks are strong. Our banks are strong. Theyre going to be strong
for many, many years. Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke said in May 2007, We do not
expect significant spillovers from the subprime market to the rest of the economy or to the financial
system. In August 2008, Paulson and Bernanke assured the country that other than perhaps $25
billion in bailout money for Fannie and Freddie, the fundamentals of the economy were sound.
Then, all of a sudden, things were so bad that without a $700 billion congressional appropriation,
the whole thing would collapse. In the wake of this change of heart on the part of our leaders,
Americans found themselves bombarded with a predictable and relentless refrain: the free market
economy has failed. The alleged remedies were equally predictable: more regulation, more
government intervention, more spending, more money creation, and more debt. To add insult to
injury, the very people who had been responsible for the policies that created the mess were
posing as the wise public servants who would show us the way out. And following a now-familiar
pattern, government failure would not only be blamed on anyone and everyone but the
government itself, but it would also be used to justify additional grants of government power. The
truth of the matter is that intervention in the market, rather than the market economy itself, was the
driving factor behind the bust. F.A. Hayek won the Nobel Prize for his work showing how the
central banks intervention into the economy gives rise to the boom-bust cycle, making us feel
prosperous until we suffer the inevitable crash. Most Americans know nothing about Hayeks
theory (known as the Austrian theory of the business cycle), and are therefore easy prey for the
quacks who blame the market for problems caused by the manipulation of money and credit. The
artificial booms the Fed provokes, wrote economist Henry Hazlitt decades ago, must end in a
crisis and a slump, andworse than the slump itself may be the public delusion that the slump has
been caused, not by the previous inflation, but by the inherent defects of capitalism. Although my
recently released book, Meltdown explains the process in more detail, an abbreviated version of
Austrian business cycle theory might run as follows: Government-established central banks can
artificially lower interest rates by increasing the supply of money (and thus the funds banks have

Barilla un fabricante de pasta italiano lanz un programa .pdf
Barilla, un fabricante de pasta italiano, lanz un programa de inventario administrado por el
proveedor (VMI) con sus clientes, que son propietarios de almacenes independientes. Barilla
encontr la siguiente dificultad durante la implementacin del programa:
Armando Porcini, propietario de un pequeo almacn en el sur de Italia, era miembro de un
consorcio de compras de propietarios de almacenes independientes. Algunos propietarios de
almacenes independientes en el consorcio haban operado bajo el programa VMI de Barilla
durante casi dos aos cuando Barilla finalmente convenci a Porcini, un cliente de Barilla desde
hace mucho tiempo, para que se inscribiera en el programa VMI. Porcini siempre haba negociado
firmemente los descuentos con Barilla, a menudo cerrando la puerta o colgando al representante
de ventas de Barilla, gritando No hay descuento? Sin camin!
Cuando Porcini finalmente accedi a probar el programa, Rinaldi, otro distribuidor de Barilla
ubicado en el pueblo de Porcini, continu con las prcticas tradicionales de compra. Al percibir la
vulnerabilidad de Porcini bajo el programa VMI, Rinaldi compr cuatro meses de pasta Barilla con
un descuento promocional del 5% y luego inund el mercado con el producto Barilla de precio ms
bajo. Porcini estaba furioso: Todos en mi ciudad conocen el precio de la pasta. Es el producto ms
importante que la gente compra! Mi reputacin est arruinada! Inmediatamente abandon el
programa y volvi a sus antiguas prcticas de compra con una determinacin an mayor de impulsar
los descuentos.

Background This case study presents a 68year old righthan.pdf
Background
This case study presents a 68-year old right-handed African-American man named Randall
Swanson. He has a history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia and a history of smoking one pack per
day for the last 20 years. He is prescribed Atenolol for his HTN, and Simvastatin for
Hyperlipidemia (but he has a history of not always taking his meds). His father had a history of
hypertension and passed away from cancer 10 years ago. His mother has a history of diabetes
and is still alive.
Story
Randall was gardening with his wife on a relaxing Sunday afternoon. Out of nowhere, Randall fell
to the ground. When his wife rushed to his side and asked how he was doing, he answered with
garbled and incoherent speech. It was then that his wife noticed his face was drooping on the right
side. His wife immediately called 911 and paramedics arrived within 6 minutes. Upon initial
assessment, the paramedics reported that Randall appeared to be experiencing a stroke as he
presented with right-sided facial droop and weakness and numbness on the right side of his body.
Fortunately, Randall lived nearby a stroke center so he was transported to St. Johns Regional
Medical Center within 17 minutes of paramedics arriving to his home.
Day 1
Initial Managment
Upon arrival to the Emergency Department, the healthcare team was ready to work together to
diagnose Randall. He was placed in bed with the HOB elevated to 30 degrees to decrease
intracranial pressure and reduce any risks for aspiration. Randalls wife remained at his side and
provided the care team with his brief medical history which as previously mentioned, consists of
hypertension, hyperlipidemia and smoking one pack per day for the last 20 years. He had no
recent head trauma, never had a stroke, no prior surgeries, and no use of anticoagulation
medications.
Physical Assessment
Upon first impression, Nurse Laura recognized that Randall was calm but looked apprehensive.
When asked to state his name and date of birth, his speech sounded garbled at times and was
very slow, but he could still be understood. He could not recall the month he was born in but he
was alert and oriented to person, time, and situation. When asked to state where he was, he could
not recall the word hospital. He simply pointed around the room while repeating here.
Further assessment revealed that his pupils were equal and reactive to light and that he presented
with right-sided facial paralysis. Randall was able to follow commands but when asked to move his
extremities, he could not lift his right arm and leg. He also reported that he could not feel the nurse
touch his right arm and leg. Nurse Laura gathered the initial vital signs as follows: BP: 176/82, HR:
93, RR: 20, T:99.4, O2: 92% RA and a headache with pain of 3/10.
Doctors Orders
The doctor orders were quickly noted and included:
-2L O2 (to keep O2 >93%)
500 mL Bolus NS
VS Q2h for the first 8 hrs.
-Draw labs for: CBC, INR, PT/INR, PTT, and Troponin
-Get an EKG
-Chest X ray
-CT
-Gluc.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation Blue Star - Saka Neela Tara
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

He and the other Wizzo managers have been doing this the right way - focusing on growing Wizzo's customer base and pursuing reasonable cost reductions. Bart has been rewarded with stock options that now add up to a significant portion of his personal wealth. The latest forecast figures have been just presented to him and it is evident that Wizzo's stock value is going to tumble as soon as this news is made public. Would it be ethically acceptable (amoral) for Bart to sell off his Wizzo stock before the bad news comes out, or would doing see be unfair or harmful to the other shareholders Bart is supposed to be representing? Answer with the Four-part answer model. 1. State your answer to the question in a single short sentence. -Do not use terms like "I believe" or "in my opinion." 2.Give your reason(s)in defence of your answer. -A complete reason is a statement or set of statements that together makes your conclusion follow. 3.State an opposing answer and the reason one would appeal to support that answer. 4.
